Cheap & Delicious versus Expensive & Delicious...What Say Y'all?

[Brimy]

I just love a good cigar! Who here doesn't!!
I'm not in the league to stay stocked with high end stuff and not sure my palate would appreciate them. But I'm not buying a $1.50 stick unless I know it's good. I've had some "cheapies" that I'll buy again and some that I won't.
My typical purchase is in the $5 - $10/stick range online. I'll go a bit higher every now and again for the HTF/LE stick. I'll go lower too, 1844, RB Genesis, Obsidian (black label) & I know that I'll have to let these sit for a bit to really enjoy them.
I'm typically not doing anything when I smoke. So I can get into the cigar.
On the occasion that I go to a B&M, I'll usually buy something I've been wanting to try so the price may reflect that. And as my fellow NY'ers have said, we get hit hard with taxes.
I said all of that to say this, it's about the cigar & not really about the price.

Could not but agree wholeheartedly with your post...but the final line says all one needs to say on the subject.
For anyone reading this, just reread that line and think for a minute.

Regarding NY tax on Cigars.
How about this across the pond but...
